Four Naan Jeremy? Four? That's Insane Meme Template
From Peep Show series 2, Jeremy Makes It: after Mark cancels the extra rice, Jez petulantly orders four peshwari naan and Mark is scandalised. The line became a British snowclone, quoted in curry houses and swapped to any number and item (four lightsabers, four women, four beer sessions). It's used for petty, disproportionate outrage at a mildly excessive amount. Tone is dry, British, uptight, awkward.

What the Four Naan Jeremy? Four? That's Insane meme means
From Peep Show series 2, Jeremy Makes It: after Mark cancels the extra rice, Jez petulantly orders four peshwari naan and Mark is scandalised. The line became a British snowclone, quoted in curry houses and swapped to any number and item (four lightsabers, four women, four beer sessions). It's used for petty, disproportionate outrage at a mildly excessive amount. Tone is dry, British, uptight, awkward.
Mark Corrigan (David Mitchell) in a warmly lit restaurant, white shirt and loosened spotted tie, eyes wide and mouth open in appalled disbelief, black bars at both sides of the widescreen frame. No baked text. Slot 1 is a bar across the top over the wall; slot 2 is a bar across the bottom over his shirt and tie.
How the joke works
Slot 1 sets up who did what slightly-too-much thing; slot 2 is Mark's outrage in snowclone form: number and item, the name, the number again as a question, then that's insane. Triviality is the joke, so the excess should be small and the outrage huge. It can also run as a single line in slot 2 with slot 1 as context.
- Top bar over the wall behind him: who did the slightly excessive thing and what it was.
- Bottom bar over his shirt and tie: Mark's outraged snowclone with the new number, item and name.
Caption examples
- Jake telling the group chat about his week on Hinge
- Four dates, Jake? Four? With the same girl's flatmates?
A petty but specific excess, Mark's snowclone with fresh nouns, and a final turn that makes the four worse.
- Four people died in the crash
- Four? That's insane.
Uses a real tragedy, so the uptight outrage reads as cruel instead of petty.
Situations it fits
- your mate ordering four sauces at the 3am kebab shop
- a friend bragging about four Hinge dates in one week
- the boyfriend who owns four identical grey hoodies
- your flatmate's fourth Deliveroo order today
- someone taking four pre-workouts before leg day
- the guy in the group chat with four burner accounts
- a gamer buying the fourth edition of the same remaster
When this format does not fit
- A genuinely serious or tragic quantity (deaths, injuries); triviality is the whole joke.
- Copying the original naan line word for word instead of swapping the item.
- A huge, obviously crazy excess; it has to be just slightly too much.
- Losing the snowclone shape so the reader can't hear Mark.
- Narrating the image: a man looking surprised in a restaurant.
